I'm puzzled. How many retired people really take out 30 year mortgages?
In Vermont they only used to give 20 year mortgages. We paid ours off in our early 40's.
We plan to pay cash for our home in THE VILLAGES.

Thus, this "bond" would be paid at that time, correct??? Meaning time of sale/closing. Not in installments.
Thanks in advance.

P.S. If one is approaching 70 years old (68/69) they would be 100 years old by the time the mortgage is paid off.
